joining us now is patricia murphy, founder of citizen jane politics and a contributor for the daily beast. let's start off here, patricia, with the question. two wins yesterday for romney. which was bigger cpac or maine? >> i think cpac. there were only 2,000 fewer voters there than in maine. >> no delegates. >> no delegates in either one, although winning cpac was so important for mitt romney because he needs to start to tamp down this raging story line that says it is mitt romney against the conservative base of the party. it is him against everybody else. everybody hates mitt romney, but is he going to win anyway. this is the story lien that's been going forward. to get a win at cpac -- it was not a huge win. he did not get a huge ovation before tl, but he did well enough to win, and that's exactly what he needed to do. >> rick santorum took a close second. >> yes. >> at cpac. to that end that you were just talking about, he seems to have now been the anointed the anti-romney candidate. when does this end? when do or do conservatives just rally behind one of the top three, i would assu
